Our Brand

We're always looking for new and exciting projects. We recently added our own LED cube kits to the website and are working on some other great new items. Our Sketch Pad has proven to be really popular. Not only is it fun to build, it's extremely useful. Keep an eye out for new products in the Hobby Components Range.

The recently added 4x4x4 LED cube kits we created have been extremely popular! We created these as through-hole kits so they suited a wider range of customers and it seems to have been a good move! Feel free to get in touch if you've built up the kit and have a customer video.

This relatively large 360mm x 220mm solar panel has an active photovoltaic cell area of approximately 636.5cm² delivering up to 10 watts of solar power at a maximum voltage of 18V. The panel comes with integrated blocking diode to protect against reverse flow of energy. Colour coded 1 meter fly-leads with handy insulated crocodile clips allow the panel to...
